EDH Help: Mono-coloured Cards I Missed

Now, I obviously can't list every card you should have in your EDH deck and there are some that I find are more obvious inclusions than others because of their obvious greatness (also, I'm under self-imposed time constraints meaning I can't cover too many cards since I won't be able to at least attempt to keep up with my schedule). My posts would also end up being really really long if I covered everything (like this one will be).

HOWEVER, some people have pointed out that I "missed" some cards in my earlier articles, so I will go over them in one sentence or less right now. Also, it has become clear to me that the word "essential" may have been a poor choice of words on my part. I just think that the cards I mentioned are really good in EDH and are worth considering.

I'll do multicolour and colourless cards soon, but I think I need to take a break from EDHing for a while.

P.S. I know that I didn't put every single "great" or "amazing" card on here but I have neither the time nor the space to cover every single relevant EDH card in one article. I'll get to them eventually, but I just wnated to give some newbies help in building EDH decks.
